Janzen Jackson, the player with perhaps the most raw talent in the secondary, will be the primary candidate to replace Berry. A five-star recruit out of Louisiana, Jackson was converted from cornerback to safety in his freshman year at Tennessee and cracked the starting lineup by his second game. By midseason, he was Berry’s regular partner at safety.

Very in-ter-res-ting. Could be had as a UDFA? Very, Very interesting!

but, if Berry signs off on him… I’d take a late round chance on the guy

The highly touted defensive back stood out as a true freshman, starting nine games at free safety alongside All-American and All-SEC strong safety Eric Berry. Jackson had 37 tackles and one interception.

Berry, who ended up being the fifth overall pick in the 2010 draft, told me in the days leading to his selection by the Kansas City Chiefs that Jackson was “the most talented cover man he had seen in the SEC.”

In 2010, Jackson was a second team All-SEC performer recording 69 tackles, four tackles for losses, five interceptions, 11 pass knockdowns and a sack.

FS Janzen Jackson: McNeese State (6-0, 190)
A former five-star recruit who enrolled at Tennessee in 2009 and played immediately in the secondary. Is a good athlete with a "plus" first step, gets up to speed quickly and looks like a 4.4 guy in the deep half. Possesses a solid feel when asked to decipher routes in front of him. Takes good angles toward the throw, can undercut routes and exhibits "plus" ball skills. Showcases a good closing burst and settles his feet well when asked to track vertically and adjust to the throw.

Absolutely killed his stock, but plays the ball well

all with varying issues. I would never have thought Scott would think twice about this guy.
